Jalandhar, September 13, 2015: They say “When you open a book, you open a new world”. Well, who cannot agree with this? A book is like a companion, be it a baby’s bedtime story, a toddler’s picture book, a child’s comic book, a teen’s young fiction or our very own academic books.
Book Fairs have great role in promoting the reading habit among people of all age groups. Ivy World School along with Scholastic Publications organized a three day book fair cum exhibition which showcased the books of pre-primary, secondary and high school and other literary activities for children.
Apart from promoting literacy and reading habit, especially among children and youth, the fair presented a vast panorama of books on wide range of subjects from India and abroad. Parents were also found busy choosing books on the final day of the fair with coincide with the monthly PTM.
The Principal Mrs.Sanjeev Chauhan inaugurated the exhibition by talking about the prominence on how books and stories have become inevitable to us. For most of us, it is part of our everyday lives. Books are one of the basic necessities of life and it is also one of life’s simple pleasures. She addressed the students of the school and marked her belief of good education by linking it to fictional and non fictional books.
Here are the glimpses of excitement our young champs showed, during the first day of the Scholastic Book Fair.
